Great pics, the pepper looks awesome. Is it common to have purple flowers on a pepper? I haven't grown many varieties, so the only one I've seen it on is Buena Mulata.

Thank you MissionGardens,
It is my first time to see purple flowers on a pepper plant. We have planted many new-to-us ornamental pepper plants this year and are waiting to see them bloom out. I wish seed sellers would include more or any pictures of what the plants and blossoms look like. |

Ooh, more pretty things! That second one is some kind of Allium, I think. The yellow flowered looks like a potentilla but I think they have 5 petals so maybe not.
It's so nice to see something in bloom. My Mom's first crocuses are up... still waiting here. |

One of my (6) new butterfly bushes already is blooming. Love seeing the flowers. Love seeing the butterflies come to the bushes!

Very nice photo's Robert. I love wildflowers and often take long walks around our homestead and fields to take pictures of them in all their beauty.
I love and appreciate seeing other photos of native wildflowers from across the country. Very pretty. Ginny |

Wild Daisies, they are a bi-annual that will reseed for you. Once they finish blooming they will die. The second pic is a Shasta Daisy which is a perennial.

You sure have a great selection of wild flowers there.

I need to mow the area these are in. Most of the wildflowers in this area have done their thing already - so it looks like a weed patch now.

Lovely flower pics. Nice to see what grows where and how different the bloom times are across the continent.

One I didn't mow. It's a thistle. There is a long story about why I love thistles. I have had a thistle as my desktop background for years.
